Organización de empresas Resumen: Political economy focuses on issues that are fundamental to individual and collective well-being and rests on the proposition that economic phenomena do not occur in isolation from social and political processes. One leading Australian political economist is Frank Stilwell. Highlights of his work include concerns with the creation and use of wealth, inequalities between rich and poor, the spatial implications of economic growth, and the tensions between economic growth and the environment. Stilwell has been especially prominent in developing alternative economic policies, with seminal contributions to understanding the radical shift in Australian economic and social policies since the early 1980s. He has also been a leader in the teaching of political economy to many cohorts of first-year university students. This collection, spanning these themes, honours Stilwell’s contribution to Australian political economy after more than 40 years teaching at the University of Sydney. The book provides not only an opportunity to appreciate his contribution but also a greater understanding of these themes which remain of crucial contemporary relevance Nota de contenido: Foreword -- Part I: Introduction -- Part II: Contesting Economic Ideas -- Part III: Teaching Political Economy -- Part IV: Economic Inequality -- Part V: Economic Policies -- Part VI: Cities and Regions -- Part VII: A Green Economy -- Part VIII: Conclusion En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-36121-0 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=36117 Challenging the Orthodoxy : Reflections on Frank Stilwell's Contribution to Political Economy [documento electrónico] / SpringerLink (Online service) ; Schroeder, Susan K ; Lynne Chester . - Berlin, Heidelberg : Springer Berlin Heidelberg : Imprint: Springer, 2014 . - X, 274 p. 12 illus : online resource.

Título : Chinese Economy in Disequilibrium Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Yining Li ; SpringerLink (Online service) Editorial: Berlin, Heidelberg : Springer Berlin Heidelberg Fecha de publicación: 2014 Otro editor: Imprint: Springer Colección: China Academic Library, ISSN 2195-1853 Número de páginas: XVIII, 203 p Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-3-642-39558-1 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Political economy Economics Management science Economic policy Economics, general Economy Policy Clasificación: 658 Empresas. Organización de empresas Resumen: Known internationally as ‘Mr. Shareholding’ economist, Li Yining has had a transformative impact on China's economic transition, most notably as an early advocate of ownership reform and in his promotion of shareholding theory. By examining the interrelationship between the government, enterprises and the market, Chinese Economy in Disequilibrium presents an in-depth discussion on the issues of resource allocation, industrial structure, institutional innovation and economic fluctuation in the current Chinese economy under the condition of disequilibrium. Credited with developing the theory of economic disequilibrium, Professor Li distinguishes two types of disequilibrium on the basis of whether or not the majority of firms in the economy are viable profit-makers. In Chinese Economy in Disequilibrium, Professor Li points out that not only has China’s economy been in a state of disequilibrium, but it also has issues with enterprises not being under budget constraint. Given the limitations of market regulation under economic disequilibrium, Professor Li advocates the reform of the enterprise system and upholds the government’s leading role in the establishment of order in the socialist commodity economy. A number of measures are also proposed with the aim of facilitating the transition of China’s economy from disequilibrium to equilibrium. The central theme is that the reform and transition are means to serve economic growth and social development, which would eventually benefit the ordinary citizens in society. Yining Li is a Professor of Economics and Emeritus Dean of Peking University’s Guanghua School of Management. He is one of China’s foremost economists, and the author of twenty books and numerous articles on a wide range of economic subjects including reform and development in China. He has received a number of prestigious awards and honours for his research. As the leading proponent of a market economy in China, Professor Li has had a tremendous influence on China’s economic reform policy over the last three decades. He has served on the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress of China and is currently Vice-Chairman of the Economic Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference Nota de contenido: Preface -- Exploring The Issues In Resource Allocation -- Market Regulation And Resource Allocation -- Government Regulation And Resource Allocation -- The Mechanism Of The Operation Of The Economy -- Rationing Equilibrium Of The Commodity Market -- Easing Supply And Demand Mismatch Under Disequilibrium Economic Conditions -- Industrial Restructuring -- Government Regulation On Agriculture -- Establishing The Order Of The Socialist Commodity Economy -- The Standardization Of Institutional Innovation En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-39558-1 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=36147 Chinese Economy in Disequilibrium [documento electrónico] / Yining Li ; SpringerLink (Online service) . - Berlin, Heidelberg : Springer Berlin Heidelberg : Imprint: Springer, 2014 . - XVIII, 203 p : online resource. - (China Academic Library, ISSN 2195-1853) .

Título : Economics of Immigration : Immigration and the Australian Economy Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: P. N. Raja Junankar ; SpringerLink (Online service) Editorial: London : Palgrave Macmillan UK Fecha de publicación: 2016 Otro editor: Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan Número de páginas: XVII, 344 p Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-1-137-55525-0 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Political economy Macroeconomics Economic policy Labor economics Economics Policy Macroeconomics/Monetary Economics//Financial Economy Clasificación: 330 Economía en general Resumen: Poverty, famines, wars, and ethnic conflicts lead to large movements of refugees. The papers in this book provide an analysis of the economics of immigration. Junankar discusses why people migrate, the likely destinations for migrants, and their employment in the destination countries. He studies the benefits to the migrant families in terms of higher wages and living standards, and also studies how immigrants fare in the Australian labour markets in terms of finding good jobs, and whether there is discrimination against them. Economics of Immigration analyses the macroeconomic impacts of immigration on the Australian economy and discusses why some groups favour immigration while other groups are against it. Junankar argues immigration has been beneficial for employment and growth; not only adding to labour supply but also to labour demand, hence leading to favourable outcomes. This collection of essays shows how immigration has helped the economic development of Australia, while also highlighting that the historical reasons for immigration lie in the colonisation of many countries in Asia and Africa En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1057/9781137555250 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=42044 Economics of Immigration : Immigration and the Australian Economy [documento electrónico] / P.

Título : Making Medicines in Africa : The Political Economy of Industrializing for Local Health Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Maureen Mackintosh ; SpringerLink (Online service) ; Geoffrey Banda ; Paula Tibandebage ; Watu Wamae Editorial: London : Palgrave Macmillan UK Fecha de publicación: 2016 Otro editor: Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan Colección: International Political Economy Series Número de páginas: XXI, 334 p Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-1-137-54647-0 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Ethnology Africa Political economy International relations Pharmacology economics Economic policy Economics Policy Relations Pharmacology/Toxicology Economy African Culture Clasificación: 330 Economía en general Resumen: This book is open access under a CC-BY license. The importance of the pharmaceutical industry in Sub-Saharan Africa, its claim to policy priority, is rooted in the vast unmet health needs of the sub-continent. Making Medicines in Africa is a collective endeavour, by a group of contributors with a strong African and more broadly Southern presence, to find ways to link technological development, investment and industrial growth in pharmaceuticals to improve access to essential good quality medicines, as part of moving towards universal access to competent health care in Africa. The authors aim to shift the emphasis in international debate and initiatives towards sustained Africa-based and African-led initiatives to tackle this huge challenge. Without the technological, industrial, intellectual, organisational and research-related capabilities associated with competent pharmaceutical production, and without policies that pull the industrial sectors towards serving local health needs, the African sub-continent cannot generate the resources to tackle its populations' needs and demands. Research for this book has been selected as one of the 20 best examples of the impact of UK research on development.

Título : Power and Neoclassical Economics: A Return to Political Economy in the Teaching of Economics Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Adam Ozanne ; SpringerLink (Online service) Editorial: London : Palgrave Macmillan UK Fecha de publicación: 2016 Número de páginas: VIII, 101 p Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-1-137-55373-7 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Political economy Schools of economics Economic theory Microeconomics Welfare policy Economics Policy Heterodox Economy Theory/Quantitative Economics/Mathematical Methods Social Choice/Welfare Economics/Public Choice Clasificación: 330 Economía en general Resumen: Mainstream economics almost completely ignores the role power plays in determining economic outcomes, which means it can only provide partial explanations of the distribution of wealth and income, and of the problems associated with inequality and poverty. For many, this is a fundamental failing that severely limits its relevance to the real world and is the source of much dissatisfaction with, and cynicism about, economics and economists. Ozanne explains how this neglect of power has come about over the past 150 years and why it is important. He reviews various definitions and theories of power from across the social sciences and proposes a new approach that could bring considerations of power back into standard economic theory and economics teaching. The approach is simple and intuitive, involving little more than re-envisioning the social welfare function as a 'political economy function'. However, if adopted in economics teaching, it could radically change the way young economists are taught to think about economic problems and lead to a 'return to political economy' En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1057/9781137553737 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=42038 Power and Neoclassical Economics: A Return to Political Economy in the Teaching of Economics [documento electrónico] / Adam Ozanne ; SpringerLink (Online service) . - London : Palgrave Macmillan UK, 2016 . - VIII, 101 p : online resource.
